Who We Are

The mission of the Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine Institute (AIMI) is to provide a quality education and affordable option for Allopathic Clinicians (e.g. Nurse Practitioners) who want to learn the art of acupuncture consistent with the theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Our secondary mission is to enhance the professional relationship and communication between allopathic providers and Licensed Acupuncturist in the community, which begins by having a common language. To achieve these goals, the program will present TCM theory in a way that provides perspectives that relate to the human experience.
We maintain a small student instructor ratio for all hands-on practicums, with instructors who are Licensed Acupuncturist with multiple years of experience and encourage clinical rotations with acupuncturist in the community. .
